Ubuntu maker Canonical revealed today that they plan on reviving their immutable Ubuntu Core Desktop distribution with support for GNOME and KDE Plasma desktop environments and other new features.

After a dormant period following a 2023 developer preview, Canonical has assembled a dedicated, cross-functional team to restart development of Ubuntu Core Desktop. The goal? A safer, more resilient Linux desktop built entirely on Snaps, from the bootloader and kernel all the way up to your apps.
